AP: the bento lunch box (and a book) I ordered off of amazon.com awhile ago arrived a day ahead of time. It's an adorable blue bento with plum blossoms and bunnies. I thought the description said that it would come with chopsticks, but it didn't. I guess that's okay; I have some of my own.

AP2: stores are starting to put up the stuff up of my favorite holiday- Halloween! However, it seems that most of it is just leftover from last year. I'd like to buy tons of the makeup and some costumes, but I don't know when I'd anything with them. Next time, I think I'd need to bring my mom with to help me say "no" to some of it, especially when it goes on sale. Is there such a thing as Halloween Anonymous?

AP: This week's Humble Bundle, pay a buck for the steam codes? Six games + Soundtracks! Above the average? Crusader Kings II, netting you an average of a buttload of savings. Got $125 burning a hole in your chunky wallet? 48 games, 20 soundtracks and enough strategy gaming to last you until the opening of the third Star Wars movie in the new trilogy that wouldn't be as good as the original but better than the prequels.
